Even if she said so, she is not wrong some Naigerians do behave like monkkeys

She had apologised and that is all that matter I hope she does not think making the team will be a walk in the park she would need to be at her very best.

naptu2 thinks he knows every body, grin grin he also knows that i want a carreer in entertainment but need more practise, also knows Liz Cambage personally, he knows her father, knows everything about her. The same way he knows me, infact, Him and I are in a relationship, he actually lives in my house. cheesy

But what he doesn't know is Naigeria loses in Everything, Naigeria never wins any competition

Ok, so I watched this interview up to the point where the talk about the incident with the Nigerian female BB team came up & these are my observations:
1. Liz is a sweet girl. I like how she's honest, open & confident about her views.
2. She's definitely not one to shy away from taking bold decisions about her life.
3. Oh! She likes money (who doesn't anyways?).
4. She's a diva who knows her worth!
5. She blames everyone else but herself for her predicaments. Every other team mate, opponent, coach, journalist or sports team owner just don't like her for no reason.
6. She has other money spinning ventures (you can even say BB is her hobby); who remembers this phrase from "Everybody Hates Chris": "...My husband has two jobs, I don't need this". Lol.
7. She lied sha when she said Nigeria needs her to switch allegiance from Australia (if you actually watched that part of the interview, you could easily tell.)
8. Drama follows her everywhere. You can call her a drama queen.

It is about the female basketball player Liz Cambage and her attempts to switch nationality to play for the Nigerian D'Tigress team as a result of her burning her bridges with the Australian national team that she once represented.

As an aside, Liz was born in England to a Nigerian man and an Australian woman. She grew up in Australia and was an all star in the NBA where she also burnt her bridges with every single team she played for.

Back to the topic, for some reason, you brought up Americans accepting her. Now you are getting worked up about my take on Obidients.

Eh hẹn, so Obidients can be hypocrites too.

House of Representatives ni.

We will rather lose back to back to back than have her on the Nigerian team. The drama she carries alone will cost us a lot.

She and the former coach can start their own team
You've just hit the nail right on the head. Nigeria is definitely better off without this controversial figure. Her presence in the team would be damn too divisive to manage. Good bye to bad rubbish --- i.e. "GOOD RIDDANCE TO BAD NONSENSE" undecided

@OyeofIkoTuN, I like that you asked this question. At first blush, she appeared racist. But going by the accounts of the Nigerian team that she had talked to them and praised them, denouncing the Aussies' team as racist , makes it difficult to determine whether she's racist or not.

Let's consider it from an emotional level. I mean, let's look at her emotional state, having publicly declared she was going through a mental and emotional problem, then, one could conclude that her emotions took over her. In that sense, I don't think she's racist, without excusing those racial slurs, however.

What I see is someone torn between two cultures, two dilemmas: fitting into a culture-Australian- where she doesn't feel 100% at home, and going back to her roots- Nigeria.

However, I still think she lacks emotional intelligence. Every human being- man or woman- although, women are innately emotionally weaker- should learn how to tame or put their emotions under check. I mean why would she utter such words as "monkeys" or "third world countries"? It's these words that have circled back over months, attained maturation and come back to haunt her no end.

Nigeria can forgive her and welcome her to the fold and not see her as a racist.

She's not welcome
Re: Basketball: Liz Cambage Says She's In Talks To Represent Nigeria by jrusky(m): 9:46am On Aug 08, 2023
All I want to confirm, is she a Nigerian by one parent or both parent? If Yes, she is a Nigerian tnen let her come back here and play for that monkey third world so she can feel how bad insult is.

If she a Nigerian by either parent I definitely know the region her parent must come from let me reserve my comment.

Babe come own ya? Wd want you here. Its same as one guy called Senate morons and God send him back to the Senate for ministerial screening that is God.

pongwa:
she has ate her words so she is welcome

She's always welcome in the first instance.

In all of these, I feel pity for Cambage. There is no battle greater than the one you fight against yourself. She must have been torn from within fighting racism and searching for acceptance all her life. If her father is Nigerian, why did she adopt Cambage as her surname? It is obvious she wished for her biracial background to just disappear and she's accepted as a full-fledged white Australian. This problem also affected Naomi Osaka and she's been breaking down emotionally.

This PR clout of wanting to play for Nigeria is not the solution. Accepting who she is and embracing her racial heritage should be a better approach.

wanting to align with Nigerian team is enough credence to the fact that she has accepted her reality. The best is to make her feel welcome
